Pumpkin Sugar Body Scrub

Fall is in the air and if you are like me Pumpkin, Pumpkin, Pumpkin is on your mind. We love all things pumpkin and when it comes to gift giving we love to make homemade gifts. In terms of beauty products we like to use all natural so this recipe really appeals to me. When Dixie Crystals Sugar invited us to partner with them we KNEW that this homemade Pumpkin Sugar Body Scrub was going to be perfect for fall and to share with you.

Pumpkin Brown Sugar Body Scrub exfoliates and moisturizes at the same time, gently sloughing away dry skin and revealing the healthy, new skin underneath. Best of all it has a delicious scent (yep, I almost wanted to eat it). Made with a few inexpensive pantry ingredients that you most likely already have in your stockpile (I did). Not only that but the added health benefits of using these natural ingredients are so beneficial to your skin. The sugar exfoliates dead skin and then the oil then acts as a natural moisturizer to the healthy new skin. The carotenoids in the pumpkin can also help keep the skin wrinkle-free according to Health Magazine. If you are like me Pumpkin is a comforting smell which makes me drawn to using this recipe as part of my weekly beauty routine each fall.
